The issue to not support Edge or Chrome web-browsers will increase when customers are moving over to Windows 10 clients or need to upgrade the browser based upon security concerns. . What is PTC´s roadmap to solve the NAPI issue with other technologies?

Hi Per,

Best information I could find on this subject is in the Resolution section of  https://support.ptc.com/appserver/cs/view/solution.jsp?n=CS222882

Partial quote:

Windchill 11.0 M010 or later with Creo View 3.1 M010 or later releases:

  • PTC is implementing an HTML5 and WebGL solution to replace the simple Creo View embedded 3D Thumbnail Viewer based functionality
    • Refer to the Mozilla Org Developer WebGL API page for more information
  • PTC is researching the best approach to achieve the same level of integrated Creo View client functionality provided by the Windchill Open in Creo View action
